REVEALED! Indian UCAV Is A Tongue-Twister: She's Called The "IUSAP"

Revealed possibly for the first time here on LiveFist, India's proposed unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) is being developed under what is called Programme AURA (Autonomous Unmanned Research Aircraft) and the prototype technology demonstrator being conceptualised goes by the working title Indian Unmanned Strike Aircraft (IUSA) or Indian Unmanned Strike Aircraft Programme (IUSAP). The Aeronautical Development Establishment (ADE) and Agency (ADA) are currently conducting a feasibility study of two UCAV designs and expects to freeze a concept in 2011. The National Aeronautics Laboratory is also involved in the concept study of the IUSA. While the Nishant and Rustom UAVs have been publicly shown before, the Defence Ministry has asked ADA to keep the IUSAP classified and out of sight as far as possible. I've been told by sources that the first demonstrator is likely to be an all composite swept-wing model, though a lot of design elements haven't been frozen just yet.
 
Thats a great news indeed!!!. So this is a completely different program by ADA, which sounds logical for them post designing LCA to take up this one.

Good work, future years will be amazing for our defense.
 
lol When our babus will learn to keep classified programmes secret!!! :rolleyes:

BTW good see that they are working on it. Above all they should start it now otherwise we wouldn't be able to induct them in time. Selling of long range UCAV is banned by the MTCR.
 
so where are the pics mate
